by rescuer Moderator 28 Oct 2013

My Cute friends,

I wanted to thank all of you that have helped make my new unpaid job as moderator a more tolerable experience. This job is not easy! I knew it would not be easy when I accepted the request from Ms. Veronika. I worried that it would negatively impact my troubled physical health. It has – but (with my doctor’s approval) I intend to stay.
I love this site! It is for the love of Cute, Veronika and all my Cute friends that I accepted the request to become a moderator. It will be for the love of you all that I continue. I am very blessed to have so many friends here! I will continue to do this job with the respect I am sure each of you individually has earned and deserves. I hope you all will help make this moderator job easier for all who have volunteered their time and talents so that Cute can be a happy and peaceful place to share a wonderful hobby.
Hugs to you all!

Thank you too for everything you moderators do to keep the forum going. It's a ritual for me to visit and "see" others so to speak miles away, we all share the love of sewing and embroidery. We learn and can oooh and ahhhh over others projects and share links of new freebies, older freebies and patterns to keep us busy sewing for a lifetime.

It is a great place. Some may think we have become boring, because we use restraint in our postings, however it is perfect for me. Thank you all moderators, and glad to hear we don't make you sick! Lol!

You don't make me sick. lol
Stress does -- but I can deal with that.
It can be boring to obey the laws but it is the right thing to do. I am sure things will get busy again when the DBC is back.

Words cannot express how I feel towards this site, Ms, V, the moderators and the rest of the Cute family. I worried that taking on the job of moderator may take its toll on your health. Remember health and family come first. 99.99% of the members are caring, loving people who love coming here for everything that this site has given us. Its the .1% that make your job stressfull.
Thank you for all you and the others do, we all do appreciate it.
Hugs back to you.

I am so very thankful for you and the rest of the the 99.99%!
I will be OK -- for now. I am sure my doctor will let me know if I need to hang up my moderator hat. I will learn the best way to deal with the 1% and then we will all have a peaceful place to be.
Hugs!

It is the Cute Community that needs to thank you and the other three Moderators for helping Miss V keep this site a save haven for all of the Cuties...without all of you, we would not have this most loving and caring place to be a part of our lives...it is a thankless job for all of you, but know that the entire Cute Community is grateful for all that all of you do every day to keep us connected and safe...there aren't enough thank you's to really thank all of you properly...so every day, I come to this Community and appreciate the special connection that all have made possible...

It is wonderful to feel the support reading these posts. It can be a stark difference performing the job -- but I will hold onto the kind words I have read from you and other Cuties. It is all of you that make this job so worthwhile. I am sure love is the reason Veronika keeps this forum open to all of us.
Hugs!

I am so grateful for each and every one of the Moderators. I know how hard you all work for Miss V and for us. You are our first defense and I know each of you have taken some unpleasant hits. I have said it before and I will continue to be your supporter, cheerleader and defender. I will add you to my prayer list.

Rescuer, I believe Cute has returned to being a peaceful, loving place. I'm sure you are a part of that. I do hope it isn't too stressful in your position as moderator, so you can continue. But, if it ever becomes too stressful where it negatively affects your health, then you MUST let go of that added responsibility. Cuties needs to be a place to go for everyone to find a little peace! I just dread the day when another one of those wildfires breaks out and has to be stamped out in a frenzy that creates such animosity. If everyone can just continue to be nice, we can all be a happy big family! Thank you, Rescuer and other moderators!

It is most highly appreciated what you, dear rescuer. and the other moderators are doing for this group - it takes your time, it requests your
full attention, politeness, strictness, diplomacy, computer knowledges!
It also needs an understanding family or DH at your sides - because if you share time with this community you cannot share with them.
THANK YOU FOR ALL AND EVERYTHING! In Germany we would say -
you have an "Ehrenamt" - a task or job of honour (not for money)
Thank you so much - Maria
